Diary Of Adam And Eve

Diary Of Adam And Eve
Adam and Eve discover each other in the Garden of Eden and record their experiences on stone tablets. (The first diaries!) Their dramatized courtship sparkles with wit and humor, poignancy and pathos. Eve tries to knock down a few stars to wear in her hair, discovers the beauty of fire, talks to her reflection in the pool, thinking its her sister, pleads with Adam not to go swimming over Niagara Falls (or at least go over in a barrel). At last, however, when they leave the Garden, Adam and Eve discover their enduring love and need for each other. This highly original two-character play, drawn from Mark Twains Diaries of Adam and Eve, is a barrel of laughs, as rich in wisdom as in wit.

Space War 2000

Synopsis:
You are in another galaxy where a violent space war is in progress. The power-mad Prime Minister, Rastupo, of the planet Nargot, plans to overthrow Queen Delandrea, take over the Nargot space station and eventually control the entire galaxy. All roles may be played by either men or women. The costumes and settings are left entirely to your imagination. This play has lots of room for special effects, exciting confrontations and unusual characterizations, yet it is surprisingly simple to stage. Its the first play of its kind and a sure winner for any group!

Termination, The

Termination, The
A dark, moving satire on overpopulation in the year 2000. A lonely young woman, fed up with romantic disappointments and overwhelming problems, applies to the governments Suicide Center for "termination." Hundreds of forms must be filled out; then theres the termination choice. Should she choose gas or pills or bullets or electrocution? The mirth-ridden interview is interrupted when an employee carries into the room the sole remaining possession of a recent "terminiee." It is a parakeet in a cage. How a bird rekindles our heroines interest in life by providing her with something to love is a moving and powerful resolution to this play.
